Staying up and "bingeing" Starfield "literally saved" this player's life
A Starfield player has credited the sci-fi game with saving their life after they stayed up late to play it and was awake when their apartment complex caught fire.
u/Tidyckilla took to Starfield’s subreddit over the weekend to report their amazing escape, saying that if they hadn’t been awake “bingeing” the game when the fire broke out, the player and their wife would likely have “died to smoke inhalation”.
“Starfield literally saved mine and my family’s life on 1st September,” the player explained, appending a photograph of an apartment fire to his post.
“I have waited for this game since the trademark rumours of 2015-2016. In anticipation, I preordered the premium addition, waiting to play this game. On the night of 31st August, I decided to stay up and play as long as possible to experience this new universe.
